Correspondent WASHINGTON June 8— Although in recent days there has been a tendency to give a sensational turn to discussion of preliminaries for the naval conference which would normally convene in 1935 these conversations In fact they f rq natural enough are necessary if the conference is to be convened on the date already tentatively fixed namely a early next year There are it is true noT a few who believe it would be a gam for world peace if there could be This view a postponement springs from a double perception of he difficulties in the pathway of this meeting and the experiences of the disarmament Conference which still lacks an adequate grave On the surface the differences between the interested nations m the matter of their navies appear insuperable We and the British have to be sure settled the thorny question Of parity Although yve shall probably bicker over Size of battleships and caliber of the guns of cruisers our bickering will not be serious But by contrast the French and Italians are still miles part in their debate over parity and in addition the Soviet Union and Germany are bound to ask to be admitted to the next session And their presence must Obviously bring new complications Far East Big Hurdle The most serious of all the hurdles lor the next' naval conference however is the far eastern question in all its many ramifications Thus the Japanese have given fair notice of their purpose to insist upon parity If they persevere in this determination only one of two things can happen — either the conference will lead to a deadlock and breakdown like that of the league conference or Japan’s insistence will triumph and the Japanese fleet will be rapidly ex- Anglo-Japanes- e 6 panded Great Britain has already indicated that it proposes to resist this Japanese claim to parity For the British it would mean substantial inferiority everywhere east of Colombo or st least east - ent intention is patently to keep political issues out of the agenda of the conference The question must at once rise: What are America’s Interests in the premises? Our right to extend our fortifications at Corregidof7 for example would be beyond challenge if the old treaty of Washington were permitted to lapse or were already denounced But since we are already in full retreat from the what advantage Philippines such action confer would upon us? Wauld Farce Defense It would at pnee compel us to maintain our present policy of building large cruisers and huge battleships at enormous expense because only ‘In that -- fashion could we hope to defend the Philippines It would similarly have bearing upon the size of our army because to defend the new fortifications in the Philippines would require new land forces Such information as reaches me at present JendsJo confirm my earlier impression that the Japanese will not be distracted 7 from their main purpose by an ' implied threat of our extending our fortifications at Corregldor They are satisfied that we do not mean to stay in the Philippines and that American public opinion is therefore unready to go to vast new expense to defend them Thus in this direction we have no effective answer to the present Japanese purpose to demand parity or as the sole alternative recognition of the special position and interests of Japan in China for some portion of their fleet would always have to be stationed in the North and Mediterranean seas to force recognition of Manchu-ku- o and of her far efttern Monroe doctrine although bee pres- - Saluting the Greatest Electric Washer Value on Earth Maytag Formerly Sold at ALUMINUM WASHER Country Japan ” ti nrM -- France Italy or Present tonnes United States British Empire With equal fleets Ve and the Japanese would doubtless pas- -' sess complete naval superiority in our own home waters Both nations might in war Undertake raid! but neither could hope to control the ocean in the metropolitan areas of the other Thus the Japanese threat has in practice as little real significance for us a£ our counter threat— that we will extend our fortifications in Corregidor and elsewhere — has for them On the other hand the situation is quite different for both the British and the Soviets If Japan should acquire an equal fleet with Britain British naval control would stop at Singapore and the British situation both in Indian and the Australian waters would at the least be uncomfortable The British have there- -' fore very pracUcal reasons for opposing the Japanese demand for parity and very sound reasons for trying to make a combination with ourselves against it As for the Soviets it is plain that until they have reached a settlement with the Japanese they must view with alarm any extension of Japanese strength in Siberian waters 708550 967019 656123 348740 261631 Fawert May Combine British Soviets and Americans against the Japanese in the next naval conference is thus far from un- - Allowed a oppropri-ote- lor on Doc SI ms Total x 222060 930610 130195 103626 134994 73898 1097214 - likely In view of this possibility the Japanese are likely to oppose the admission of the Soviet UnkJn to the conference As tot the French they will certainly use the desire of the British to have their support in the naval matter so far as Japan for a is concerned as a basis counter claim of British support against Hitlcrized Germany— al-- 1 though in principle because of IndoChinese her possession French interests are identical And with those of the British if France goes with Britain Gerto throw her supmany is sure port to Japan Is There' then the obvious making of a new cat and dog fight All the classic material for precisely the kind of struggles which have marked the still existing disarmament conference are available High politics and low intrigue secret maneuvers and private bargains are all bound to be discovered International distrust and tension already ao acute will be intensified unless in the months before the conference is convoked some basis of settlement of political Issues can be arrived ’at But is A combination of the 759781 by London Treaty of list 1123600 115450 — 714120 n&t fixed 483734 not fixed 335529 there any prospect of such forthcoming naval conference 4 promises to amount ‘to nothing more than a confrontation Nations pursuing rival and even openly hostile policies will employ their armament programs to support their policies The French seeking security' will refuse Italian parity save at the price Of British guarantees The" Japanese demanding 1 ed on Feee Three) under- standing?
